Xennial: Dreaming in Colour
Exploring 'new' territories, studying the concept of a micro generation described as Xennials, a term given to those born to a micro generation between 1977 and 1985, this ongoing study explores an uncharted generation that bridges the gap between two eras described as Generation X and Millennials, while broadening the perspective of Welsh culture identity through the device of photography and lens based media.
Set in the peripheral of a small ex-mining village in the Gwendraeth Valley, at the dawn of a new era, this is a multimedia collaboration project that takes a closer look at the generation that welcomed the first household computers, ATM, VHS, Starwars, personal stereos, the first artificial heart, mobile phones and internet access. Celebrating the wonder of childhood, nostalgia, while pulling at the seams of the past, Xennial tells the tale of a demographic that saw the best of two worlds, old and new.
